About the Book

In recent years there has been a bold revival in the field of natural theology, where “natural theology” can be understood as the attempt to demonstrate that God exists by way of reason, evidence, and argument without the appeal to divine revelation. Today's practitioners of natural theology have not only revived and recast all of the traditional arguments in the field, but, by drawing upon the findings of contemporary cosmology, chemistry, and biology, have also developed a range of fascinating new ones. Contemporary Arguments in Natural Theology brings together twenty experts working in the field today. Together, they practice natural theology from a wide range of perspectives, and show how the field of natural theology is practiced today with a degree of diversity and confidence not seen since the Middle Ages. Aimed primarily at advanced undergraduates and graduate students, the volume will also be of interest to researchers in philosophy, theology, biblical studies, and religious studies, as an indispensable resource on contemporary theistic proofs.

Review :
The scope of these essays helps to articulate the exceptional breadth of Contemporary Argument in Natural Theology as a whole. The variety of arguments throughout the book provide a point of contact no matter the interest of the reader, and sprawling bibliographies at the end of each essay open up significant inroads to further study ... Contemporary Arguments in Natural Theology is a worthwhile read for anybody interested in the topic. Graduate students who wish to keep up with the latest work in natural theology will find this a useful resource. This excellent book is proof of the continuing interest in and relevance of natural theology. The essays are creative, clear, and rigorous. They provide both new arguments and creative, cutting-edge slants on old arguments. Contemporary Arguments in Natural Theology will be helpful to advanced undergraduate students, seminary and graduate students, as well as philosophical scholars.
